Since raptor ID is mostly based on in-flight gestalt, it is very hard to identify anything based on field marks. Regular bird guides are of little help, because you actually have to see the bird to get a feel for it's behavior and flight style. I thought it would be useful to have a video field guide to birds of prey somewhere online, so I'm going to slowly start one. I don't have much for equipment in order to make this, but I'm doing what I can for now. I am getting video faster than I am capable of uploading it, but bit by bit I will have it up.
